Robot 8 • The Scorpion Assassin Droid 168 Body Step: 19 Add these pieces to both sides of the body as shown. Inventing… Customizing the Scorpion Assassin Droid Because the Scorpion Battle Droid has four legs, it is very stable compared to the bipeds presented in this book. This means that there are more options available to you for cus- tomizing it. For example, try to equip the Scorpion Assassin Droid with wings on its sides. If you try this, make sure the wings do not interfere with the moving parts already present (the legs, the tail, and the claws). You could also try different variations on the tail, but make sure not to make it too heavy or it will not move properly. 227_Lego_dsr_08.qxd 12/19/02 9:52 AM Page 168 Robot 8 • The Scorpion Assassin Droid 169 Add the legs to both sides of the body as shown.
